Posted By: PaulNot quite vintage, but I thought a decent number of board members would enjoy this one. It's a 1949 team issue. <img src="http://www.network54.com/Realm/tmp/1139543217.JPG">

Posted By: Daniel BrettaPaul, I had that one in my watchlist...It went much higher than I thought it would, but then again I had never seen it before so it must be pretty rare. I collect Lincoln Athletics items and Nellie Fox has always been one of my favorite players.

Posted By: ChadRyan pulled a couple of examples of this card out of Venezuela. There's one other player represented and only two of each known. The players are from the Venezuelan professional league and they were issued in 1931. I feel pretty lucky to have this one. <img src="http://www.network54.com/Realm/tmp/1139691314.JPG"> <img src="http://www.network54.com/Realm/tmp/1139691403.JPG"> --Chad

Posted By: howardI like the logo on Mr. Fung's jersey. Do you know if the team names was "Diablos"?

02-11-2006, 01:11 PM

Posted By: ChadI've still got a lot of research to do on the Venezuelan leagues. So far it's been a slow go as there isn't a ton of information out there, to put it mildly. Maybe Ryan can chime in on this. --Chad

Posted By: CatCongratulations Chad!!! I don't know anything about this card other than what you and Ryan have said about it, but my Pigeon Spanish leads me to believe that the team name has to be Magallanes...not only because of what the rest of the card states but the placement of the name on the card. Chad, I might be full of bunk, but you might want to research if it is a team name with reference to Magellan (in English) or discovery in general... that's just a hunch. <a href="http://www.magallanesbbc.com.ve/v2/" target="_new" rel="nofollow">http://www.magallanesbbc.com.ve/v2/</a> Edited again to add link

Posted By: Travis AndersonMy sister-in-law works for a Ford dealership here in Cleveland. Some distributor walked in a couple days ago and passed out 3 of these. She knows about my vintage addiction and managed to snag one for me. The bottles indicate they were brewed in 2003 by Helmar Brewery. I'm not sure whether or not this production had any cards associated with it. Here is a link to a list of their distributors: <a href="http://helmarbrewing.com/beer_distribution.htm" target="_new" rel="nofollow"><a href="http://helmarbrewing.com/beer_distribution.htm</a" target="_new" rel="nofollow">http://helmarbrewing.com/beer_distribution.htm</a</a>> Travis

Posted By: Shawn AdkinsYes, this beer is still available but most carry it as a seasonal item only. The company distributes many sports related items created by their own art department and have been available since 2003. There are six different labels, 24 different crowns, 4 different carrying cases, wooden signs, advertising pieces and a 74 card set of baseball players and boxers. They are very beautiful items. Photos of the complete card set and crown set can be viewed on my website. If you would like more information, shoot me an email.
